Quote (942767 @ May 17 2008,11:55)When someone is born again, they know, not just believe, that God is a reality and that His testimony regarding His only begotten Son, Jesus, is true. This is the truth that I am talking about. If you knew the truth about this whenever you were in leadership, shouldn't you still know that this is true?People can…[Read more]

Hi Shania,Your posts have shed so much light on a weary soul tonight. God bless you. Even though you said you were rushed and quickly wrote things down – you'll never know how much it blessed me. Thanks, sister.Love,Mandy

Quote (Is 1:18 @ May 17 2008,16:51)But you've inferred that our doctrines are inferior.You guys read too much into what I said.I said that folks who have decided they don't believe in the trinity have a hard time letting go of certain aspects of that doctrine. That is all I meant. Not that the doctrine was inferior or anything of the sort. Of…[Read more]

Quote (Is 1:18 @ May 17 2008,17:14)Quote (Not3in1 @ May 17 2008,17:01)Sometimes I really think it's tragic, too.I was so happy before in my state of un-knowing.  But now that I have studied certain things out I can see the problems.  I can't ignore them.  They are there, like an elephant in the middle of the room.And yet others have also looked in…[Read more]

Paul,I'm too tired to be arrogant.You don't know me very well.You've been away too long.Mandy

Quote (Is 1:18 @ May 17 2008,16:43)Quote (Not3in1 @ May 17 2008,16:32)I don't even reach for my bible anymore.That's a tragedy Mandy, seriously. I think you've bought into a lie. The translations aren't perfect, that's true, but that is not to say that the original autographs were not, and the essential truths have been preserved I believe. All…[Read more]

WJ,Wow – I just finished reading your post to me (I hadn't read the whole thing before I posted the above post).You really let me have it, didn't you?  Good grief.  Are you OK tonight?  Bad night?You know me well enough by now that you must realize I wasn't being mean spirited by my comments.  I do think that there are certain beliefs attached to…[Read more]

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ May 17 2008,15:44)I find your words lacking.That's OK, bro, I understand.I haven't been as “into” debating lately as I have in months gone by. I don't even reach for my bible anymore. I'm sure my arguments are growing stale. I've heard the same arguments for the same scriptures so many times now that I have become…[Read more]

Hey Lin,You are welcome everywhere I am welcome – OK?

My mother loved Tom Jones, Loretta Lynn, Conway Twitty – I grew up with them all playing around the house. I'm a country-girl at heart, but when I feel roudy (which is often ) then I like to listen to more up beat/dance music.

Quote (martian @ May 17 2008,08:22)Thanks everyone for your kind words.

Hi Colter,Quote * A Father is not a Father without offspring.The dictionary defines “offspring” this way:  one coming into being through plant or animal reproduction.And “Father” this way:  Male parent; God; originator.Just so we are talking about the same thing, I gave us a working definition of both terms.Indeed the Father became a Dad when J…[Read more]

Adam,One more thing, this group also puts out a magazine that comes every other month. I am so blessed by it! See if you can sign up for receiving it. You would be blessed by it, too.Here is another site that I dig quite a bit:www.restorationfellowship.orgI know their leader, Sir Anthony Buzzard. He is a delightful man and very intelligent.…[Read more]

Quote (gollamudi @ May 16 2008,19:18)http://www.truthortradition.comOh! this site, that is my favourite site. It belongs to Biblical Unitarians. I have taken print outs of many articles from that site. I rate this site better than Christophiladelphians because they believe the Holy Spirit is working in present day belivers and also about the…[Read more]

Hi Adam,Just so you know, that post was a clip from a website that I had received from somebody else. I do agree with much of it, however. It is a fantastic website for research. But it was not my original thoughts. I just wanted you to know that. Take care bro,Mandy

Charity, I swear, we are soul-sisters! The times we have PM'd eachother/emailed/shared…..we have so much in common, it's amazing. Yet our “personalities” here on the board are so different. I like that.You need to start a thread (if t8 would allow it) like, “Charity's Music Picks” or something. Anyway, email me your fav's…….I'm picking…[Read more]

Quote (gsilva72 @ May 17 2008,02:40)Quote:”The Word was a Spirit being the Son of God,”Hi Seek and you will find,How could he be a spirit being with the Father when John 4:24 says, ” God is a Spirit? I'd like to know, because we can't have the Father as a spirit, the Son as a Spirit, and the Holy Spirit as the spirit. That equals 3 spirits. That…[Read more]

Quote (gollamudi @ May 16 2008,19:49)hey come on seek,Don't misunderstand my words. We were all together in the same level of beliefs of triune God. That was an old story. I debated many times and many ways to prove trinity. Read the posts of Gene, Not3in1, Adam, Martian etc. See the spirit of understanding behind them. Have any others in this…[Read more]

Hi GS and WJ,I found an old thread on this passage and so I will respond here tomorrow.Thanks guys,Mandy
